Tywyn railway station serves the town of Tywyn in Gwynedd, Wales. The station is on the Cambrian Coast Railway with passenger services to Barmouth, Harlech, Porthmadog, Pwllheli, Aberdovey, Machynlleth and Shrewsbury. The world famous Talyllyn Railway runs from Tywyn to Abergynolwyn and Nant Gwernol, but these services terminate at Tywyn Wharf 300m (aprox) down the road at 90 degrees to the National Network line.
Unlike most stations on the Cambrian Line, the station has retained two platforms and a passing loop. The station however is unmanned and the original station building remained derelict from 1980's until the mid 2000's when the buildings were refurbised as offices.
